Bond No.9 Puts Andy Warhol Back In The Spotlight

The artist who needs no introduction is celebrated in the latest Bond No. 9 fragrance.

Andy Warhol captures the "boho-mod life and times of the iconic artist himself" says the company. This is the sixth in the series of Warhol inspired scent. So far these have been linked to specific New York locations—from Union Square to Montauk—where the artist lived and worked. " ...the time was right for an eau de parfum that’s an ode to Warhol himself, with an image of the artist on the bottle".

Andy Warhol is described as androgynous. The fragrance opens with Italian bergamot zest and peach juice "which are quickly juxtaposed with red rose, peach juice, and spicy cumin...centifolia rose, white patchouli and cistus ambre". Other notes include jasmine, lemony-spicy frankincense, and oud. Then drydown, is described as 'aphrodisiac territory' and includes amber, sandalwood and musk.
